The social problems that beset our community need a forum where they can be aired and discussed. When the CSWB was set up, the Govt. of India decided that a monthly magazine on Social Welfare should be published in order to sensitise the public about social problems, issues and concerns. The magazine was also envisioned as a platform for highlighting the activities of voluntary organizations working for the welfare of women, children and other disadvantaged groups.

The inaugural issue of ‘Social Welfare’ was released in April 1954. This was followed by the first issue of ‘Samaj Kalyan’ in Hindi in August 1955. The magazines are planned and edited independently to cater to the needs of their individual readership. Both magazines have the most extensively documented material on all the social problems in Indian society and they are referred to as resource material by students of social work.
